Feasible location for a charitable IT Training Centre
by Athar Ahmad Bhatti 18 Oct '12

18 Oct '12

Dear friends, I have been tasked to look at the feasibility of setting up an IT training center by a charity to help students become employable. Any advice on the location, courses et al would be appreciated. My key queries are: 1. What is the best location to start with, that has a desperate need and cost effective to manage, get trainers, facilities and other resources 2. What courses would enable students to be marketable and start immediately This would be an initial pilot and would lead to other centers once this is successful. Thank you Best regards Athar
